Powerful command-line bookmark manager

buku is a powerful bookmark manager written in Python3 and SQLite3. When I started writing it, I couldn’t find a flexible command-line solution with a private, portable, merge-able database along with seamless GUI integration. Hence, buku after my son’s nickname, meaning close to the heart in my language.

buku can auto-import bookmarks from your browsers or fetch the title and description of a bookmarked url from the web. You can use your favourite editor to compose and update bookmarks. With multiple search options, including regex and a deep scan mode particularly for URLs, it can find any bookmark instantly. buku can look up the latest snapshot of a broken link on the Wayback Machine. There’s an Easter egg to revisit random forgotten bookmarks too! Buku is too busy to track you no hidden history, obsolete records, usage analytics or homing.
